Please describe how you tried to use it, and what exactly happened.

TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT points to the support directory of the bundle that  
the command/macro/whatnot is in. So when you check it from the "Show  
TM_* variables" command, which is in the "TextMate" bundle, it points  
to the support directory of the TextMate bundle. Open the bundle  
editor, go to the textmate bundle and copy the "Show TM_* variables"  
command, and move the copy to the Latex bundle, and run it from  
there. What does it say now?

Please provide some more details. For instance, if you are in a LaTeX  
file, with the language saying LaTeX, and you type ==> and then run  
the macro, what happens?

Btw, this macro is very much a work in progress, more of a proof of  
concept kind of thing. It is supposed to look at the last three  
letters before the caret and do something clever with them, so if you  
have more suggestions for other three-letter combos that should be  
generating standard commands, please suggest them.
